Bishop Gérard de Conchy

1247-57

Tomb said to be that of Bishop Gérard de Conchy. The tomb has been inserted into the lower wall soon after construction. The door to the right once led to a passage to the bishop’s palace. More recently it has accommodated the head of John Baptist.
Bishop Gérard de Conchy presided over work of construction on the choir--the completion of the radiating chapels and start on the upper choir.
